Yeah I hate free MMA-related shows where there's real fights.
Seriously just DVR it and fast forward to Arlovski knocking clowns out and submitting them with top mount triangles.

eh, id hesitate to even call them fights. the rules are ridiculous and usually one half of the fight has no significant training (in fact it's usually an actor fighting the mma fighter). pair that up with the completely falsified storylines, and i lose all interest.

I look at it the same way I look at reality TV. Once you accept that its not actually reality, and its just a steaming pile of bullsh*t. Its actually kind of enjoyable.

It'd make the sport look bad if one of the guys they were supposedly challenging for the contest turned out to be a legit badass and knocked AA out.
Those guys are basically stunt dummies that are paid to take a beating.

I don't really watch BB anymore but I do recall that one of the bullies had a great showing (against Thomas Denny I think) and left with all the cash.

which equals stupidness!
It has ZERO to do with MMA and thats the furthest away on how the Sport should be represented in my point of view at least.
It's more like those Back Yard Brawls which you can see on youtube.

Well to be honest, there are a lot of guys on there that just aren't very good. I'm almost 99 percent sure that their are guys who train, do traditional martial arts, or are just big time athletes/maybe military trained, etc that could kick some of those MMA fighters asses.
Just because a guy isn't licensed doesn't mean he couldn't beat Michael freakin Westbrook in an MMA fight.
Same with Arlvosky...pretty sure you pair him up with anyone with a strong punch and it wouldn't be as one-sided as they always aim for it to be.

i like how they have denny warming up in a decrepit warehouse that looks like it's one hard push from collapsing and killing everyone inside.
